I currently am running the Supcase Unicorn Beetle and absolutely love this case. I switched over from the Ballistic a little over a month ago and am I impressed. A $20 case that fully protects your phone and isn't bulky. I have tiled floors and I have dropped my phone numerous times and phone is still fully operational with 0 damage..
Spigen ultra hybrid clear to showcase the dbrand skin. The Supcase is nice I just wish it came in an ultra clear.
Spigen neo hybrid had the nilken bumper but I'm a cook and its easier to clean a case then a phone I like it got it on the 80% off sale so it was like 6 bucks best buttons of any case feels just like the stock ones

Incipio dualpro, spigen crystal screen protector, and a maxpedition tc-II pouch just because this thing is too large for me to pocket carry. I've dropped it twice the first time it broke the Verizon crystal screen protector so I swapped to spigen, and haven't had any issues.
Started with the Unicorn Beetle Sup case good case made the phone huge though, moved on to the Nillkin Willtoo bumper case and really liked it. Just got the i-Blason case ive had it for a couple days and it is a decent case so far.

Spigen ultra hybrid clear. Had a Seidio but it was too slippery. Kept the holster though. works well with the Spigen.
i am using the obliq Flex Pro Series and it's supeb, the only problem is that you can recognize which button you are pressing.
Just got my Nexus yesterday (so we're hardly talking long term use here) but I have the Ringke Fusion Crystal and am happy.
I didn't want to end up with a massive case so I'm still on the lookout for something a little more protective.

Trident Aegis. I seem to be developing a habit of dropping mine about once every two weeks.
Last time was on to a tile floor from about waist level. I didn't even bother picking up my phone until i finished what I was doing and it was fine.
spigen crystal/metal ultra, neo hybrid also.
I have other cases I use sometimes but mostly spigen ultra hybrid.
Can anyone tell me why I can't post photos here? Can't do it from Google drive or Flickr.
Ringke Max for almost all its life. Have the unicorn beetle case as well. Just like the thinness of the max
Diztronic TPU from Amazon, only 10 bucks!

Ringke MAX, great case, full coverage and not bulky
Like the OP, I have the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle case. It does make the phone a little bulky, but as my 3 year old daughter often plays with my phone in her hospital bed I like having the amount of protection it offers.
The downside is I already have a screen protector on the phone, so the built in screen protector interacts with the one that I installed and is creating air bubbles which my daughter continues to think are dirty spots. Would remove the other screen protector, but every now and again I will pull the phone out of the case when I don't need the protection.
As a side note, I have found that during charging with the turbo charger, the phone does run a few degrees Celsius warmer, and if I leave an intensive application (read as Taichi Panda, or another 3D game) then the phone is almost too hot to pick up; usually have to remove the case to cool the phone down efficiently.

I had diztronic but found I really needed the dimple cut out. Got the tudia tpu case, works great.
Spigen neo hybrid gun metal. Best case. I get it on all my devices. With tempered glass.

I'm still using the Skrillix live case with glass screen protector. I normally change cases and wallpapers often but I like the ever changing wallpaper on this thing. Protection wise though it just looks nice until I probably drop it.

Hi everyone! Just recently got this behemoth of a phone, and it is just too beautiful to go naked bc if I dropped it, it's over. So that saying, my mom has a Galaxy note 2 and she has a case-mate POP case from AT&T on clearance for like $5, and it's a solid case. I want a case similar to this case, where if the phone landed on it's face, it won't be damaged a lot since there's enough lip on the case. This won't really be a major factor since I will be putting a tempered glass protector on it. The major thing I'm trying to find is a case where it won't eat a lot of lint if you do fit it in your pocket, and won't slip off at the corners if you do drop it! I have seen cases that is made out of just TPU claiming tight fit, but as soon as it lands, the phone goes one way and the case goes the other, and also the battery....
I have seen the spigen slim armor, and it looks solid compare to the neo-hybrid. All the other cases are too bulky, like the lovemei, or the ballistic series. Please list your suggestion, and real life photos of the case, including the lip clearance on the screen if you can so I can make my decisions Thanks a lot once again!:good::fingers-crossed:
Slim Armor is a good option if you don't want too much bulk. This case fits very snugly and won't come off unless you pill it off. It provides only modest drop protection though. If you want really good protection an Otterbox commuter or similar such as trident aegis would be better. Those cases make the phone significantly larger though.

I just got the spigen neo hybrid and it's a really nice slim case. I love the styling. Seems like it should be adequate protection for normal use. I just got it today though so not going to comment on the long term.

thank you all for your answer! The urban armor looks decent but still pretty thick. The otterbox series I don't like since that's over bulking, the spigen slim armor is possibly the best case imo but I don't know how good it is until one of the guy here said it's pretty tight fit

I have one of these cases..probably the best things ever. Had one for my S4 previously, and it took so much damage! My phone is a big thicker now, but it's protected without being otterbox thick
I have both a UAG and otterbox commuter. Used to use those cheap tpu case and I thought it was fine until I dropped any bent my speaker grill.
Ever since then, I'm addicted to UAG. Beware of fakes though. I feel the otterbox a bit too heavy to use.

Best I've found over the past year:
http://www.amazon.com/Ringke-Essential-Protector-Scratch-Resistant-Protective/dp/B00O152P7G
The SF Black has a nice soft touch to it and it comes with a screen protector. I'm sure there are better protectors on the market but for an all in one package it's tough to beat. Only gripe is that I wish it had the Moto dimple cut out. That would make it perfect for me.
Third one looks good ?.

just run mine naked - love the looks of the phone
The incipio dual pro fits this beast well and has a nice grippy feel to it
I'm using Nillkin Frosted Shield case. Really slim and gripped so it's not slips from the hand. I don't really know if it's protects from dropping, but I don't really care about it because I'm really careful with my devices and I have tempered glass on it.
I got two different ones and use them both (not at the same time) depending on the need for the day.
The first one is really nice/inexpensive and since I got clear it doesn't affect my original color choice for the phone (which is white). It came with a free screen protector but despite rather significant experience at applying protectors this one didn't go so good so I removed it and now I'm just going without, but that's mostly because I use the second case most of the time.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00SX1NNJI/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The second one is a larger pouch case and it's my favorite because it allows me to keep the phone naked so it will fit in the Proclip custom mount in my truck. I can still easily hear alarms, notifications, etc with the phone in this case. It protects the screen and the whole phone very well. It's a little pricey but really good quality/construction. My phone is in this case like 99% of the time.

The OP was looking for a slimline case. That's the total opposite, probably the biggest case you can get for the N6. The Ringke Fusion is probably the one the OP wants. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ringke-FUSI...hash=item3aad336132:m:mm5wuDQt5cp30pfU-E1_3cQ

This is hands down the thinest quality case you can get for our phone.
There were a couple of links in this thread for Ringke cases and I would absolutely agree. Ringke cases are superb.
Also , if you are looking for a tempered glass screen protector then look no further than this :

Lol, I just received this same case yesterday. While I love the thin design which covers all 4 sides and back I wouldn't trust it in a drop from any distance. But then again I don't what something too thick because I also carry a iPhone 6s. Just couldn't pass up on a $200 Nexus 6.

I see that the holster for this case is a snap in holster and not a slide in. Does the holster allow for the phone to be attached screen out?
Been looking for a good quality very protective case for the phone (buying this soon) as most seem to be the very flimsy wallet style cases than offer no protection whatsoever.
Found these 2 so far:

Amazon (UK) : DWay Lenovo ZUK Z1 Armor Case Hybrid Design Detachable and Stand-up Feature Dual Layer Protective Shell Hard Back Case Cover for Lenovo ZUK Z1 5.5inches
Loads of colours, has the excellent Soft TPU + Hard PC = Dual Layer protection including the foam rubber at the corners which means if you drop it on it's corner it usually bounces a little and won't damage it. It also has a lip which will protect the screen if you drop it face down onto a flat surface, obviously dropping it on the corner of a table or similar surface will smash the screen but no case will protect against that. A lot of people don't like these cases because they bulk up a phone which should be "thin and stylish" but to be honest, I'd rather have a safe phone than worry about how it looks. I had a very similar case previously for my Nexus 4 and they are excellent at protecting your phone, I dropped the Nexus 4 a few times (sometimes while inebriated ) and it never got damaged at all in a very similar case to this.
On sale at the moment for £5.99 (Supposedly normally £19.99)
Ebay: AMZER DUAL LAYER RUGGED HYBRID WARRIOR KICKSTAND CASE FOR LENOVO ZUK Z1 - BLACK
Similar case on ebay, looks to have the same build type but next to no info and looks to be only available in black.
On sale for US $6.36 (Approximately £4.19)
They both have lockable kickstands if you like watching videos or listening to music on your phone, I've never really been big on doing so.
I think I'll be going with the first one and try to find a good tempered glass protector but I'm not fond of these as they usually make you lose a bit of functionality/responsiveness on the touch screen.
I had a look on Otterbox too (www.otterbox.co.uk) but there's nothing for this phone, it is quite a standard form factor though and is similar to the LG phones, namely the G4 (which has 2 Otterbox cases), I think the dimensions and button placement are very similar, has anyone tried a G4 case on this phone or another similar case?
That's the case I'm waiting on. Went for the all black. Got an imak to tide me over but it is rubbish. That case is ugly IMO but for protection it's the best out there. Got my glass screen protection today of Amazon. Not a bubble. Fits a bit short but the holes are spot on. I'm in uk too. No way is that £20 normally
---------- Post added at 08:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:26 PM ----------
Oh the screen protection is called HD from kingfishing and no loss of touch 5quid Amazon
That's the problem with these phones. The big players with stylish designed cases are not interested. Like you easy protection over looks. My motto too. Always had case and glass screen protection and never broken one yet, despite some big drops where the protection has cracked but not the screen.
I bought one of those cases from Ebay listed as "3D 2in1 Grenade Grip Skip-Proof Rugged Warrior Hard Case TPU Cover KickStand" from a seller called "easysales111" It only cost £2.99 but took a few weeks to turn up from China. It's OK, a bit fuggly but with a certain rugged charm. Not a rubbery as I would like but grippy enough to hold easily. £2.99 is about right.
I did have a very nice dark wood effect case that I got from a seller on Aliexpress - it looked lovely - well lovely until the finish rubbed off in my pocket - hence my choice of the rugged case.
I am currently using the "Spigen Neo Hybrid Case" and i want a 2nd case that's more slim.

I'm currently using the Spigen thin fit case and I love it, looks awesome as its not thick like most cases.
this is my option :
- SPIGEN Rugged Armor Samsung Galaxy S7 – BLACK
- RINGKE Slim SAMSUNG Galaxy S7
- SHUMURI Slim 0.35mm Samsung Galaxy S7
- VERUS Single Fit Samsung Galaxy S7
I've literally tried almost every big name brand at this point. And I love the Ringke SLIM Case
I have the Spigen Slim Fit and was happy with it until I found the Nillkin frosted.
http://www.nillkin-case.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=4469
I now have both and only ever use the Nillkin. They're very similar but the Nillkin is very slightly thinner whilst offering great protection and also has slightly less plastic covering the phone, which I like. It also has better grip as the back is textured (nurled) and Spigen is mat-ish finish. The coating on the Spigen has also started to chip/wear after only a short time, which is disappointing. The Nillkin doesn't have any coating as it's through-coloured and the texturing is moulded in so no wear issues at all. The final decider was that the Nillkin obscures less of the screen (by about 1mm each side) than the Spigen and the lip at the front is also lower, making swiping in from either side easier. The Nillkin also works perfectly with the Ultimate Shield Tempered Glass protector as there's around 1/2mm clearance between the protector and edge of case.
One last thing is that the plastic it's made from isn't totally rigid but it is hard-ish. It does have some elasticity, which can only be a good thing. You can twist the case very slightly with gentle force and this flexibility must surely give greater bump protection than the rigid plastic cases which just shatter in impact. It also allows wireless charging as well without any issue.
The Nillkin is the best case I've ever had and perfect balance of protection, coverage and grip and for the money its' unbeatable. I'll be buying these from now on for all my phones.

For me that's a positive. I wanted a minimal case but which will still give good protection. If you want ultra protection you need a rugged case. The likelihood of dropping the phone cleanly on one of the ends (perpendicular impact) is almost zero. With this case the back and corners are (almost) fully covered and AFAIAC that's enough. The Spigen Ultra Slim that you said you liked in the OP gives the same level of protection to the ends but possibly 1-2mm more corner protection but they're still not fully covered. TBH I don't see why either company couldn't cover the ends and corners fully (with a small slit on the corners to allow for fitting), would seem logical.
You can try Ringke's Ultra Thin case. It covers all sides of the phone. Very lightweight and and thin.

Not sure if this classifies as "slim" for most people, but I came from an LG G3 with the Zerolemon battery so anything is slim. Wireless charging, Samsung pay, all work with this case.
I chose a little more "bump" for my buck with the Symmetry case, but I've since dropped it several times and had no adverse effects.

Got this case a few days ago. Design is beautiful. If you have a skin, the clear back shows it off nicely. Back plastic is really hard. Feels like glass almost. You can tell it's a high quality case. It does not feel cheap and my phone feels protected. Great front bezel/lip rise. Power and volume buttons are clicky which is always nice. Ultimately it feels great in the hand.
A few things to think about though.
Since the back is clear hard plastic that means it is a finger print/dust magnet. I constantly have to wipe it down. Also I placed it in my pocket for 10 minutes and I guess moisture caused a pretty big rainbow spot on the back.
The sides are smooth so it doesn't have the best grip. It can slide out of your hands if you aren't careful.
Although the buttons are clicky one thing that isn't too great is that they are flush to the case and the groove indicators are not that deep so more times than I'd like, I see myself lowering the volume when I wanted to increase the volume.
Lastly it adds bulk, but not on the level of a rugged style case. I also have a Spigen Liquid Air case that is just a tpu and this Supcase is noticeably bulkier and heavier.
But ultimately it is a case I would recommend. Dropped my phone on tile floor and of course the phone was fine but the case didn't have a scratch on it.
I've ordered a few cases, including the official OnePlus bumper case, and the SupCase is the one I like best. It's been on my phone basically since I got it. As you you mentioned the only real downside I've found is the volume buttons, it's hard to tell which one you are pushing at times. Other than that, a great case, at a great price.
Got this case as soon as I got the phone. It's gorgeous, it's protective, even saved it for me nasty spell. But I would safe because of the buttons being flush it's hard to find them really easily. Other than that it really has been an awesome case, thanks to everyone for recommending this case.

i recently bought this case too
- i like that the flush side buttons don't get caught up when taking it out of my pocket
- and yes kinda hard to identify the vol up and down buttons sometimes - maybe a raised ridge in the middle of the buttons would have helped to tell them apart
- the sides have a slight rubbery feeling - not very grippy but still acceptable - it might appear slippery if your hands are very dry
- moving from the original tpu case that it came with - the extra bulk is noticeable but does not hinder usage unless you have small hands - it is a tad bit harder to reach the top parts of the screen
- i still have the protective film at the back of the casing on - LOL - so i can't tell how smudgy it is going to get
now my question is - what tgsp are you guys using ? i am still on the original film protector that came with it and want to change to tgsp but not sure which one will fit nicely with this case.

Any should fit fine. I'm using the official OnePlus 3D one on mine. I just put a SuperShieldz 3D one on my friends 6T with the case a couple weeks ago. She hasn't had issues either.
I tried this one on op6 and couldn't live with the buttons.
Office karbon is my favorite so far. Got a decent open box deal on eBay for my op6t 18$ free ship. Item was new.
